This golf course offers some excellent view of the mighty Himalayas. Under the control of army, this is one of the highest golf courses in the country. It also has a dosa point (open to everyone), where you can enjoy some south indian dishes and click photos with golf course in the backdrop.

Well many has written about the serenity of this place but none has mentioned about the road to canopy walk from here. So I decided to write about it. In May 2016 me and my friend visited charkhole for 3days. As it is a small habitation with fewer small hamlets, and there's nothing much ACTIVITIES(birdwatchers has a lot to do though) we decided to visit canopy bridge in lolegaon. When we asked our homestay manager Mr Vijay about cars, he gave us the idea of walking instead of spending 1500 Rs up and down on jeeps. We started at 8am in the morning after heavy breakfast. The road is from behind the famous blue pine lodge and passes through a small habitation. after 15 min or so, there are a few turn and bends which our manager had explained us elaborately in a map that he had drawn for us. we took the road as he directed, mostly followed "left behind traces of new age consumerism"(read plastic wrap of chips, wafers, candys and gutkha: trust me they will definitely show you the way if in any case you are lost):P There are no certain road, the one you usually get in a common trek route. There's only a trail. Which is awesome. I travel a lot, I hike a lot, but I will never ever forget the silence of that one hour of walk. We seldom talked, the silence got us. It was so much like feeling drunk only here the SERENITY has got you. You are bound to love it especially if you like silence. However there are leeches, there are chances that you might stray. There are leeches which sucks your blood in such a unique style that the bleeding wont stop easily even if you remove it. :P After 1hour of treks through the serene forest we reached a main road from where we took a left turn and reached canopy bridge after another 20 mins of main road walk. Canopy walk is good, theres an entry fee of 10 rupees or so, a small shop that sells momo, maggi and hot tea was there. My water bottle fell from my bag in the forest, and i was so thirsty after the walk i almost drank one ltre of water(take a water bottle with you). We came back following the same way. stopped near the BSNL tower at charkhole and enjoyed the sunset. Next morning we went on the charkhol top. One can get a 360 degree view from there. If you are physically fit and mentally prepared this is a must go trail.
